Again there is rumours on the grapevine that Mac is leaving half way through this season. It's not confirmed but there is talk about it this time.

wee spoiler for you all

CSI: NY| Let's kick off this week's column with a dip into the reader mailbag. Jess writes, "Now that CSI: NY's Danny is a Sergeant, are we going to see that aspect? And most importantly, are we going to see a lot of Danny/Lindsay?" For starters, yes, in the Sept. 23 season premiere, we will see that Danny's promotion means he had to leave the lab and return to patrol, where he supervises uniformed officers in his precinct. And as for the Messers' marriage, you will need to wait no longer than Episode 2 to witness how Danny's new gig is affecting things between him and Lindsay.

"We're taking all of our characters back to that day," executive producer Pam Veasey tells us. "You get to see them together. You see why Claire loved Mac, and why Mac loved her."

Veasey also hinted that Mac's moments of reflection may offer him some inspiration to look for love again. "We've had a few women in the past pursue Mac," she says. "We like the idea of maybe seeing Mac being the pursuer."
